When your family gathers around the tree to open presents on December 25th, you want to see a smile on every face as they untie the bow and pull back the wrapping paper.

He always says, "You don't have to get me anything." He won't make things easy for you. These 18 best Christmas dad gifts are the perfect starting place. Ready to surprise and impress, you're sure to find an out-of-this-world idea.

1. Personalized Whiskey Stones & Shot Glasses

For guys who tend to start Christmas by yelling instructions through a bullhorn to "sit down," or "stop going in and out," help them relax with these shots glasses and whiskey stones. Perfect for a quick nip or slow sip, these boxed sets make distinct Christmas gifts for dad. Just be careful when he finds the tongs--he might want to use them for something other than plopping rocks in his Elijah Craig.

2. Crystal Whiskey Decanter

These traditional crystal whiskey decanters make good gifts for fathers because they come engraved with up to four names of your choice. A stately glass stopper accents the timeless teardrop shape, and the thick construction has a sturdy look and feel. Suitable for scotch, bourbon, tequila, or whatever he reaches for most, it will serve as a daily reminder of family love all year long.

Effective for grandfather Christmas gifts, and for all golf lovers.
